Birth Pang Lesser Tribulation

These lunchtime live streams on my lunch break. So, God

bless everybody. Matthew Miller here from Maranatha Ministries. Today we're

going to be going over the simple fact that Jesus

Christ calls the birth pangs the lesser tribulation. That's what

He does. So, take note that in the first seven

verses of Matthew chapter 24, He states those are the

Matthew 24 · chapter mention

seal judgments. They literally line up exactly. They are categorically

what's going on during this time. So in verse 8

he says, these sealed judgments are what? All these are

the beginning of sorrows from the New King James Version.

That in the Greek is the Greek word odin. Odin.

That is G5604 in the Strong's Concordance. And that's why

I'm trying to do this. I'm trying to get you

to realize the word is not in English. It's not

any translation. It's not in a German translation. It's not

in a Spanish translation. The word is written in Hebrew

and Greek. So you have to get to that. And

the easiest way to do that online is with the

Strong's Concordance. So you can look these things up. So

this is clearly both the KJV and the New King

James Version. Both here are mistranslations. Odin in Greek means contractions.

That's what it means, contractions. The paying of birth. So,

what's verse 9 say? Verse 9 says that during this,

what is it? Verse 9. Then they will deliver you

up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be

hated by all nations for my namesake. Here, it is

literally that Greek word for, Tribulation. It is the Greek

word 2347. Thalipsis. It's thalipsis in Greek. It's tribulation. This

is the same exact word he's going to use here

in just several short verses. So he says the birth

pangs are the tribulation. Okay? And during this time, they

will make martyrs out of you. That's what he's saying.

When you kill someone who's been born again, they're a martyr.

When you kill someone who's been baptized in the Holy Spirit,

they're a martyr. That's what they are. So verse 10.

And then many will be offended and will betray one

another and will hate one another. This is talking about

inside the church buildings. This is going on inside the

church buildings. Verse 11. Then many false prophets will rise

up and deceive many. These false prophets aren't atheists. These

false prophets aren't Muslims. These false prophets aren't Buddhists. These

false prophets are inside your church buildings. They're your fellow

congregants who have not been born again. Verse 12. And

because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold.

But he who endures to the end shall be saved.

Verse 12 says, exemplifies how those of us that's been

born again, and we don't practice lawlessness. We don't lie.

If you lie, you're practicing lawlessness. If you commit adultery

on your spouse, you're committing lawlessness. If you euthanize your parents,

you're committing lawlessness. If you're aborting your babies, you're committing lawlessness.

This is coming inside the church, and he's saying those

of us that's been born again, that don't practice lawlessness,

we must endure this to the end. Verse 14, and

this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all

the world as a witness to all the nations, and

then the end will come. He's getting ready to categorically

tell you the end of Daniel's 70th week. The first

three and a half years was spent during Jesus Christ

earthly ministry. That is plainly laid out in Daniel chapter 9.

It's plainly laid out. Daniel chapter 9 verses 24 to 27.

Daniel 9:24–27

It's plainly laid out. So he's telling you that the

great tribulation is the last three and a half years.

That's what he's saying. And he's going to tell you

what starts that three and a half year tribulation. Verse 15,

Therefore when you see the abomination of desolation spoken of

by Daniel the prophet standing in the holy place, whoever reads,

let him understand. Then let those who are in Judea

flee to the mountains. Let him who is in the

housetop not go down to take anything out of his house,

and let him who is in the field not go

back to get his clothes. But woe to those who

are pregnant and those who are nursing babies in those days,

and pray your flight not be in the winter or

on the Sabbath. For then there will be great tribulation,

such as not been since the beginning of the world

until this time, no, nor ever shall be. And unless

those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved, but

for the elect's sake, those days will be shortened. Let's

stop it right there. So he just categorically told you

that during the sealed judgments, It will be business as usual.

But once that abomination, once that abominable Passover desolation happens,

you need to know your society is over. It's time

for the sixth seal event. The sixth seal event is

the day of the Lord. That's beyond contestation. The sixth

seal is the great day of the Lord. That is

what starts the tribulation. It's right there. So you need

to know that this is Jesus Christ speaking. He called

the birth pangs tribulation. And he called after that, the

last three and a half years of the end, he

called that great tribulation. So the birth pangs are the

lesser tribulation. And this is when the great apostasy takes place.

This is when it happens. And it will be on

a buildup. And it will be business as usual until

the sixth seal event. And then every society on this

planet will be destroyed. It'll be destroyed. There'll be no

more trains, planes, automobiles. God stops all that nonsense. God

stops all that nonsense. So you need to understand, this

categorically just said that. Just come right out and told you.

Jesus Christ laid it out for you systematically and categorically

how it's going to happen. Categorically by two different things.

The tribulation and the great tribulation. And he calls the

great tribulation the end. The end being the end of

Daniel's 70th week. That's what it is the end of.

So when you know this, It makes everything make sense

in the end times. Makes the whole end times make sense.

All of it. All of it. So, take note. We're

going to read here from Daniel chapter 9. And it

Daniel 9 · chapter mention

comes right out and tells you exactly how it's going

to be. And take note that verse 26 states it categorically.

And after 62 weeks, Messiah shall be cut off, but

not for himself. You're supposed to know that is the

final week because he already told you about the first

seven weeks. And then he told you about the next

62 weeks. After that is the 70th week. And he's

saying in the middle of that week, Messiah would be crucified.

And he was. So we have three and a half years.

of the end to go. This is why it's said

seven different times, three different ways, in both the Old

and New Testaments, in Daniel and in Revelation. The end,

the great tribulation, is three and a half years. It

calls it times, time and a half a time. It

calls it 1,260 days, and it calls it 42 months.

And it says, Those things have been cut short. They

are shorter in every way, shape, or form than our

literal three and a half years. And you're supposed to

know why. There's a reason for that. The reason for

that is, is because Jesus Christ was crucified on Passover,

but he didn't ascend into heaven until 40 days later.

So no matter what, you got to take 40 days

off the latter half of the week and apply it

to the former half of the week. week. I mean,

it doesn't take a rocket scientist degree to figure out.

Daniel's 70th week is not broken exactly in half because

those 40 extra days before he ascended to heaven. That's

the whole point. So, I hope you did enjoy. And
